Desirability
The shield of Resistance[1] is a wonderful item for almost any character, bearing two resistances and a healthy dose of willpower. Any character who can use a kite shield should at least consider using it.
If you already have all 3 properties covered (say, with the hat of the Alchemist), you may prefer a different shield. Also, those with high Shields skill may prefer a +8 tower shield for its non-elemental defense. Otherwise, you're unlikely to find a better shield than this.
History
- Prior to 0.26, the shield of Resistance only provided one rank each of fire, cold, and magic resistance.
- Prior to 0.15, this unrand had a +5 enchantment.
